1.  An Ode to Freddie Waht is definitely in order.  Ulee, you\'re on it.

2.  The band should sell life-size cutouts of themselves.  They should sell a group rate on all four.  People can set them up at home like the stage setup and look at them as they listen to recordings.

It\'s true there are soooo many things they could sell. And a lot of it could be acquired and sold for a huge profit. Such as the keychains/stickers. Hell, My brothers band doesn\'t even have gigs and they got online and printed a bunch of shotglasses with their name on it and just gave them out. The trick is to buy in Bulk. I\'ll poke around and see what I can find on pricing. My mom has a retail license so she can get stuff cheaper too.

Some new stickers would definitely be nice. As long as they aren\'t based on the ugly Real Radio logo.

Otherwise I\'ll be rockin\' that old "(PB)" sticker on my car until they come up with something better. Preferably something that says the word "Breakfast" and isn\'t ugly so people that see it have some clue what the sticker means.

definitely, definitely need to be selling stickers. its advertisement on the move all the time, and for me personally i need to remove my Phish tag and throw on my favorite band\'s name, the dust is building up.

Well it took me almost 10 minutes to get through all these post. I don\'t check .info for a day and I\'m way behind...LOL.
Here\'s just another suggestion.
I know that there are a bunch of things we would all like to see on the merch table, I would personally like some more shirts to choose from. But that is just me.
What if the band was to hold a raffle to raise money strictly for the merch table. I remember them raffling off stuff at a Cafe\' 9 show last year. I won the big autographed poster which I didn\'t buy a ticket for, they just handed them out at the door; however, I gladly would have bought some tickets to help the guys out and I\'m sure everyone here at .info would too.
Some things to auction off could be;
1. a autograph pictures of the band
2. free passes to "x" amount of shows ( this doesn\'t cost the band anything, how hard would it be for the band/manager to but your name on a list)
3. T-shirts
4. A guitar autographed by Timmy (I may be able to get one as a donation)

Anyhow, I think if we did this and the band knew it was for merch they would be all for expanding the merch table.
Also it would have to be at smaller venue, such as Cafe\' 9, Sully\'s or Porters.
Does any see an alternative motive here...LOL. (another local show for the hometown)
So the world is spinning faster.

I def think there needs to be more merch at the merch table....last time i was there at webster i realized i owned every thing there....except the girl tee....but what i did see was the freakout dvd from couple years back playing on the moniter.  It was the first time i heard about it, so needless to say i was extremley excited, asked if i could buy a copy, and as told i could get it for free off the website....I think this proves that dvd\'s would sell...as my newbie ass would have thrown down up to 20 bucks for one.
